anyway as you found another tool to do the same job, don't worry about it :)
I have permissions as administrator -- full control, modify, read/write/execute, and I can create files in any directory, add programs, etc., so I don't know why I got that error code. The properties for the AudioShell install file indicated that installation might be blocked for some users, so I unblocked it and it still didn't work.

As you say, I've found an alternative, so now this is only an odd frustration. And it never was essential, of course.  :)
Thanks to all for your questions and suggestions.

I can't get the columns to show up. I added "regsvr32 AudioShellExt.dll" into the xplorer2 address bar as instructed and hit enter and I get : "The CPU can't make any sense of the last input"

The columns aren't showing up in explorer either. 32 bit windows 7 full administrator access.

i don't know if audioshell works for win7 but the correct way to try and register it is to go to the audioshell installation folder then type in the addressbar

Code: Select all

> regsvr32 AudioShellExt.dll
note the > beginning the command

I find I have to register DLLs as administrator in Window 7.

I left out the part about me already being in the audioshell directory. Still get same error message.

To register the DLL in Win7 I went to start menu - run  and typed:
C:\Program Files\AudioShell\AudioShellExt.dll

then was asked what program I want to open it with and I navigated to the xplorer2.exe file. This made the gui blink like something was going on, but I still can't select the columns. Am I missing a step here?

did you notice the administrator part that FrizzleFry said?
quit x2 with <alt+X>, then restart xplorer2 as administrator and try the command line again

Been running it as administrator, what threw me off was "note the > beginning the command"

I kept reading that as note as "not" so much for reading quick. working now thanks
